Just got this back. I knew it would get a PLOD, but I was hoping for 3.5 - 4.0. Still.... I'm happy

Cool Cole cover. I've never seen that one.

Also, as far as I can tell, the July Superman comic that it references at the bottom (Superman 146) does have the "Complete story of Superman's life", but NOT the reprint origin from Superman 1.

EXACTLY! Seems like it would warrant a mention in Overstreet or on a CGC label.

I think the word bubble should read, "Hellooo...... Aqualad? Garth, are you in here?"

I can't remember the issue number either, but I used to have it. I remember posting these panels in a previous thread. Hilarious

I was just paging through my Adventure 285 and saw it reprints (in black & white), the Page 2 origin from Superman comics 1. It seems like that would be mentioned on the label notes of a CGC slab for this issue. Overstreet doesn't mention it either. A funny thing about it is, at the bottom of the page it says it is from the very first Superman story published in 1938. I guess DC doesn't even know their own history...... This page is from Superman 1 published in 1939 and is no where near being the 1st Superman story.

Point taken.

Another ridiculous Aquaman panel. Looks like a good idea to me.

Dumb Dumb Dumb idea for a story!!!! Aquaman answers a distress call on a boat and finds a Clown has passed out and needs a Blood Transfusion. Once finished the clown gets all of Aquaman's powers. For starters...... WHY would a clown in full costume even BE on a boat?????? Secondly, since when does losing consiousness require a blood transfusion???? Thirdly, how does a blood transfusion give you the power to breathe underwater?????

Yes, it's a gorgeous unpressed copy. But, there's an imperfection on Lil's right knee. I think it's a printing flaw in the ink, but it comes across as a color touch.

You don't see this one very often.

Is this real or fan made. That's pretty cool.

The dynamic colors and the Typeface made this one impossible for me to pass up.

So, does that mean there were 4 comic book sized MMMs? That would be a great set to have.

I love Neill's art too. And certainly his art became what most people associate with OZ, but Denslow's Oz work.... It's too bad Baum & Denslow both had such huge egos and couldn't work together.

Robotman, ever seen one of these Billy Bounce pins? The artist, WW Denslow, was the original artist for the Wizard of Oz. I've seen his art as part of Sunday Strips, including Billy Bounce, but I had never seen this pin before.

A Buddy of mine sent me this photo of his Tracy collection. I always think of you Robotman when he sends me these types of photos. I'm sure you have most of this stuff, right?

I've had this for a while but I don't think I've ever posted it in this thread. The CF is married so right off the bat it's going into a green label. I also think it's got a couple of small pieces of archival tape on the inside cover. Is there a "qualified/conserved" label? There's no trimming, color touch, or pieces added.

Anyone know where he pulled these photos from? Did he just cut up different photos of appliances and paste them together?

Oh my! This one gets my vote as the best so far.

Better that than Thread-Ender Lad
